Remember Janine Sherman Barrois' name. The television scribe who got her start on half-hour comedies like The Jamie Foxx Show and The P.J.s then spent nine years in the "John Wells camp" transitioning into much more serious storytelling fare. Television has been her home and her heart because it's a place where you can go on a real journey with characters, telling "a story that keeps changing and keeps evolving," and her career is certainly a marker of that. Barrois decided to make the switch to drama from comedy because she wanted to be "writing about life and death"-- something she has mastered as an executive producer on Criminal Minds.

WHO WE ARE

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the Criminal Minds Round Table. When we were positing names for this blog, and Sir Bedivere suggested Criminal Minds Round Table, we knew immediately that was the perfect name for our blog.

It fit in so many ways.

Many fans, and Ed Bernero (Criminal Minds' former Showrunner and Executive Producer) himself, compare the show and its characters to The Arthurian Legend and the Knights of the Round Table. Mr. Bernero even went so far as to say that he knew that the stories had to be “Arthurian” to appeal to the most people. The team meets to brief cases at a round table, and there are many parallels between our BAU team and the Knights and other Arthurian characters.

In addition, a Round Table discussion is what we want to have here about any and all topics Criminal Minds-related. In a Round Table discussion, each participant has equal status and equal time to present views. And finally, since this is going to be a group effort amongst a group of Criminal Minds fans, we are going to take turns around the table, with each of us posting about the show, our favorite characters and our favorite actors on the show.
